Matthew 13
1 On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the sea,
Yesu pa busuba bopelobo walapula mung'anda, ne kuya kwikala panshi mu mbali mwa lwenje.
2 and large crowds gathered around him. So he got into the boat and sat down, while the entire crowd stood on the shore.
Kopeleko kwalabungana bantu bangi, Yesu walengila ne kuya kwikala mubwato, bantu bonse balemana kumutunta.
3 Then he told them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a sower went out to sow.
Yesu walamba ne bantu aba bintu bingi mumikoshano, walambeti, “Muntu naumbi walaya kumwaya mbuto.
4 As he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.
Mpwalikumwaya mbuto, nashimbi mbuto shalawila munshila, shalalyewa ne bikeni.
5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and they sprang up immediately because they had no depth of soil.
Imbuto nashimbi shalawila pabulongo bwa mabwe, apo palikubula bulongo bwingi, shalamena bwangu pakwinga bulongo nkabwalikuba bwingi.
6 But when the sun rose, they were scorched. And because they had no root, they withered away.
Nomba lisuba mpolyalatako, shalapya ne lumwi, neco shalanyana, pakwinga miyanda nkayalikuba yayapanshi sobwe.
7 Other seeds fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.
Imbuto nashimbi shalawila pa myunga. Pakukula matewu, myunga yalashinkilila kukula kwa mbuto shisa.
8 But other seeds fell on good soil and produced fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, and some thirty times more than what was sown.
Nomba mbuto nashimbi shalawila pa bulongo bwabolela cena, shalasema mifuko ingi namumbi mwalikuba nseke mwanda, namumbi nseke makumi asanu ne limo, namumbi nseke makumi atatu, kupita shalabyalwa”
9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Yesu walambeti, “Uyo ukute matwi, anyumfwe!”
10 Then the disciples came and said to him, “Why do yoʋ speak to the people in parables?”
Panyuma pakendi beshikwiya ba Yesu balamwipusheti, “Inga nipacebo cini bantu aba ncomulambanga nabo mumikoshanyo?”
11 Jesus answered them, “To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.
Nendi walambeti, “Amwe Lesa walamuyubulwila byasolekwa bya Bwami bwa kwilu, nsombi kuli nabambi uliya kubayubulwilapo sobwe.
12 For whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
Ukuteko kantu nibakamupeko nabimbi, nakabe ne bintu bingi. Nomba uyo wabula kantu kalikonse, ne kang'anako nkakute nibaka mulamune.
13 That is why I speak to them in parables, because ‘they see but do not perceive, and they hear but do not listen or understand.’
Ncondambilinga mumikoshanyo ne bantu aba nicebo cakwambeti, nambi balalanganga, nkabalabononga sobwe, nambi balanyumfunga, nkabalanyufunga nambi kunyumfwishisha sobwe.
14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which says, ‘Yoʋ will hear but never understand, and you will see but never perceive.
Ebantu aba balakwanilisha ncalikwamba mushinshimi Yesaya,” “Kunyumfwa nimukanyumfwenga, nsombi nteti mukanyumfwishishenga kubona nimukabonenga, nsombi nteti mukabonesheshenga sobwe.
15 For the heart of this people has become calloused; with their ears they have barely heard, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts and turn back, and I would heal them.’
Cakubinga myoyo yabantu yafumpa, bashinka bishili mumatwi mwabo, bacala menso abo. Ne calabula kubeco, ngababona ne menso abo. ngabanyumfwa ne matwi abo, mano abo ngaishiba ne kushinta myoyo, kwambeti ame ndibasengule.”
16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.
“Nombamwe menso enu alelekwa pakwinga alabononga, nawo matwi enu alanyumfunga.
17 For truly I say to you, many prophets and righteous people desired to see the things you see but did not see them, and to hear the things you hear but did not hear them.
Kwamba cakubinga, bashinshimi ne bantu bangi balulama balikuyandishisha kubona bintu ibi mbyomulabononga, nsombi balo baliya kubibonapo sobwe, balikuyandishisha kunyumfwa mbyomulanyumfunga, nsombi baliya kubinyumfwapo sobwe.”
18 “So hear what the parable of the sower means:
“Amwe lino munyumfwishishe bupandulushi bwa mukoshanyo wa muntu usa walikumwaya mbuto.
19 When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
Muntu uliyense anyumfwa Maswi, kwakubula kwanyumfwishisha, Waipa ukute kwisakufunyamo Maswi abyalwa mumoyo, Ishi embuto shisa shalabyalwa munshila.
20 The seed sown on rocky ground is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy.
Imbuto shalabyalwa pabulongo bwa mabwe shilapandululunga muntu ukute kunyumfwa Maswi ne kwatambula mwabwangu bwangu mwakukondwa.
21 Yet he has no root in himself, but is only temporary. When tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, he immediately falls away.
Lino pacebo cakubula miyanda yashimpa cena, ukute kulikakatishako kwakacindi kang'anowa, cakwinseti aba mumapensho ne kunyumfwa bishikubaba pacebo ca Maswi asa, muntuyo ukute kubwelela panyuma pacindi copeleco.
22 The seed sown among the thorns is he who hears the word, but the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
Imbuto shisa shalabyalwa pa myunga shilapandululunga muntu ukute kunyumfwa Maswi a Lesa, nomba cebo cakutatilwa ne bintu byapacishi ne kuyandishisha mali, kukute kutyompwesha kukula kwa Maswi asa, neco nkakute kusemapo bisepo sobwe. (aiōn g165)
23 But the seed sown on the good soil is he who hears the word and understands it, who bears fruit and produces a hundred, sixty, or thirty times more than what was sown.”
Nomba mbuto shisa shalabyalwa pabulongo bwabolela shilapandululunga muntu uyo ukute kwatambula Maswi a Lesa ne kwanyumfwishisha, Muntuyu ukute kusema bisepo, mwanda, nacimbi cindi makumi asanu ne limo, nambi makumi atatu a bishango byalabyalwa.”
24 Jesus presented another parable to them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven can be compared to a person who sowed good seed in his field,
Yesu walabambila kayi mukoshanyo naumbi, walambeti, “Bwami bwakwilu bwakoshana ne muntu walabyala mbuto shaina mulibala lyakendi.
25 but while people were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and then went away.
Nomba cindi ncobalikuba bonatulo bantu bonse, mulwani wakendi walesa kubyalamo musonde pakati pa maila, ne kufumapo.
26 When the plants sprouted and produced grain, the tares also appeared.
Lino mumena wa maila mpowalikukula nekuba ne mapumpu, nawo musonde walatatika kuboneka.”
27 So the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, ‘Master, did yoʋ not sow good seed in yoʋr field? How then does it have tares?’
Basebenshi bakendi mwine libala usa, balamwipusheti, “Nkambo, sena nte mwalabyalamo'wa mbuto shaina mulibala lyenu? Inga nawo musonde ulabonekenga mongeconi?”
28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So the servants said to him, ‘Do yoʋ want us to go and gather them up?’
Nendi walabakumbuleti, “Nimulwani wakame wenseco,” Nabo basebenshi balamwipusha kayi, “Sena twenga tutumunemo?”
29 He said, ‘No, lest in gathering the tares you uproot the wheat with them.
Walambeti, “Sobwe! Mwenseco ngamutumwina kumo ne maila mwatumunanga musonde uwo.
30 Let them both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, “Gather the tares first and bind them into bundles to burn them up, but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”
Kamubilekani bikulile pamo mpaka cindi cakucesa. Pacindico ninkambile beshikucesa Kamucesani nanshi musonde, musunge mitolo mitolo, muutente. Panyuma pakendi mubunganye maila ne kuya kwabika mu lyanga lyakame.”
31 He presented another parable to them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.
Kayi Yesu walabapa mukoshanyo naumbi walambeti, “Bwami bwakwilu bulyeti nseke shakatondo ka masitadi ako muntu nkalakabyala mulibala lyakendi.
32 Although it is the smallest of all seeds, it grows larger than the other garden plants and becomes a tree, and the birds of the sky come and nest in its branches.”
Nseke shakatondo aka ni shing'anashing'ana mwelanisha ne nseke nashimbi. Nomba mbuto yakendi yakula, ikute kupita bifukusa nabimbi, ikute kuba citondo cinene, umo bikeni bikute kwisa kwibakamo bisangala mu misampi yakendi.”
33 He spoke to them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three measures of flour until it had all been leavened.”
Yesu walabapa mukoshanyo naumbi kayi, walambeti, “Bwami bwakwilu bulyeti cishikufufumisha shinkwa, ico mutukashi naumbi ncalasankanya pamo ne bunga bwakwana bikopo bibili, mpaka bunga bonse bwalafufumuka.”
34 All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables; he did not speak to them without using a parable.
Yesu byonsebi walikubambila bantu mumikoshanyo, pacindici uliya kwambapo nabo cintu ciliconse kwabula mukoshanyo.
35 This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet: “I will open my mouth in parables; I will declare things hidden from the foundation of the world.”
Uko kwalikuba kukwanilisha calambwa ne mushinshimi, kwambeti, “Ninkambenga nabo mumikoshanyo, Ninkayubulule byalikuba byasolekwa kufuma pakulengwa kwacishi capanshi.”
36 Then Jesus left the crowds and went into the house, and his disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field.”
Yesu walashiya makoto abantu basa, ne kuya kwingila mung'anda, beshikwiya bakendi balamusengeti, “Kamutupandulwilako mukoshanyo wa musonde wa mulibala usa.”
37 So he said to them in response, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.
“Yesu nendi walambeti, Usa shikumwaya mbuto shaina endiye Mwana Muntu.
38 The field is the world, and the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom. The tares are the sons of the evil one,
Libala lisa ecishi cino capanshi. Shisa mbuto shaina ebantu bene Bwami bwa Lesa. Musonde ni bantu baipa bakendi Waipa usa.
39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. (aiōn g165)
Mulwani usa walabyala musonde ni Muyungaushi. Kucesa maila kusa ekupwa kwacishi capanshi, ne beshikucesa ni bangelo. (aiōn g165)
40 Therefore, just as the tares are gathered and burned with fire, so it will be at the end of this age. (aiōn g165)
Mbuli ncobalabunganya musonde ne kutenta pamulilo, nicikabeco pakupwa kwa cishicapanshi (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all stumbling blocks and those who practice lawlessness.
Mwana Muntu nakatume bangelo bakendi, kwisa kufunyamo mu Bwami bwakendi bantu bonse bakute kwipisha banabo, pamo ne bonse bamicito yaipa.
42 They will throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Nibakabawale mubufuni bwa mulilo, kopeloko nibakalilenga ne kukokota meno.
43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
Nomba bantu balulama nibakabaleti lisuba mu Bwami bwa Bameshabo, Uyo ukute matwi, anyumfwe!
44 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid again, and in his joy he went and sold all that he had and bought the field.
“Bwami bwakwilu ngatubwelanika cisa; Muntu naumbi walafumbula mali asolekwa mulibala. neye kayi walafumbika pambi, panyuma pakendi mwakukondwa, walakaulisha bintu byonse mbyalikukute ne kuya kula libala lisa.
45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls.
“Kayi Bwami bwakwilu ngatubwelanika cisa; Muntu naumbi shimakwebo, walayakulangaula malungu a mulo wadula.
46 When he found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
Mpwalacana libwe limo lya mulo wadula, walaya kuyakulisha bintu byonse mbyalikukute ne kuyakula libwe lyamulo wadula lisa ndyalikuyandishisha.
47 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea, catching all kinds of fish.
“Bwami bwakwilu ngatubwelanika cisa; Basulishi balawala kombe mulwenje nekubungulula nswi sha mishobo yonse,
48 When it was full, the fishermen drew it to shore. Then they sat down and put the good fish into containers, but the bad ones they threw away.
kesula bakute kukakwelela kumutunta, bakute kwikala panshi nekutatika kusalapo nswi shaina kababika mu mitanga, shaipa nikushitaya.
49 So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the evil from the righteous (aiōn g165)
Nicikenshikeco pakupwa kwacishici, bangelo nibakafunyepo bantu baipa pakati pa bantu balulama, (aiōn g165)
50 and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
ne kubawala mubufuni bwamulilo, kopeloko nibakalilenga ne kukokota meno.”
51 Jesus said to them, “Do you understand all these things?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord.”
Yesu walabepusha beshikwiya bakendi, “Sena mulanyumfwishishi cena bintu ibi byonse?” Balo balambeti, “Ee”
52 Then he said to them, “Every scribe that has been trained as a disciple for the kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who brings out of his treasure things new and old.”
Kayi walabambileti, “Ecebo cakendi shikwiyisha uliyense wa milawo laba shikwiya wa Bwami bwakwilu, ulyeti mwine ng'anda uyo ukute kupulisha bintu bya linolino ne byakaindi kufuma mulyanga lya buboni bwakendi.”
53 When Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
Yesu mpwalapwisha kwamba mikoshanyo walafumako.
54 Then he went to his hometown and taught the people in their synagogue. They were astonished and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?
Mpwalashika mucibela cakucomwabo, walatatika kwiyisha bantu mu ng'anda yakupaililamo. Abo balikumunyumfwa balikunkamana ne kwipusheti, “Mano, ne ngofu shakankamanisha shilicisa muntuyu walashifunya kupeyo?
55 Is this not the carpenter's son? Is not his mother's name Mary, and are not his brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
Sena uyu nte mwana wa shikupala mapulanga usa? Sena nte mwanendi Maliya? Sena bamakwabo nte Jemusi ne Yosefe ne Shimoni ne Yuda?
56 Are not all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?”
Sena nkashi shakendi shonse ntetulinasho pamo pano? Inga bintu ibi walabicana kupeyo?”
57 And they took offense at him. Then Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own household.”
Neco balamusula, nomba nendi Yesu walabambileti, Mushinshimi nkakute kupewa bulemu ne banse bendi mbaikala nabo mumunshi, nsombi bantu bakumbi.
58 And he did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.
Neco, Yesu uliya kwinsako bintu bingi byangofu, pacebo cakubula lushomo kwabo.
